Chinnaswamy Stadium, with many pointing out the “entitlement” behind such demands, as common citizens struggle to secure tickets even if they are ready to pay hefty sums. Most members of the public who spoke to The Hindu said the most absurd aspect is that MLAs, who own luxury cars and can afford foreign trips at will, are demanding “free tickets” and are unwilling to pay.
